The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Remastered Reveal Set for Tomorrow; Shadowdropping the Same Day We’re Told
[summaraize]
Possibly the worst-kept secret in gaming right now is getting its proper reveal tomorrow. Bethesda has confirmed today that something related to The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion will happen tomorrow.
Of course, given the leaks, we know it’s about the RPG’s remaster, which doesn’t sully the reveal one bit. Bethesda announced the stream with just the “IV” and the reveal schedule, which is April 22 at 8 am PT/11 am ET/11 pm HKT/4 pm BST on Bethesda’s YouTube channel.
Expect The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered to Drop the Same Day as Its Reveal
Here’s the interesting part: a source familiar with the situation has confirmed to MP1st that the game will also be shadowdropped tomorrow! Yes, this means that PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC players will be able to traverse Cyrodiil the same day it’s revealed.
Expect it to be available as part of Game Pass, and sold as a standalone game on PS5. While this is called a remaster by Bethesda, based on what got leaked and the improvements baked into it, it sounds more like a proper remake.
Released in 2006 on PC, Xbox 360, and in 2007 on PS3, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (or just commonly called Oblivion), takes place in the fictional province of Cyrodiil. The action-RPG’s main story focuses on your character fighting to thwart a cult known as the Mythic Dawn that plans to open portal gates to a demonic realm known as Oblivion. It was met with overwhelming positive praise at launch, though the PS3 version suffered from a significant number of tech issues — something we’re expecting the PS5 won’t be bogged down with (at least we’re hoping it won’t).

I hope the Oblivion remaster becomes available after the reveal, although im kinda skeptical considering all the leaks claiming it would release on April 21st only to find out that the reveal is the 22nd. If it shadowdrops after the reveal then yeah i’ll purchase it asap, but at this point im not getting my hopes up.
